Other mistake: "Blue" checks out Cara Dune's record and talks to her in stellar terms, obviously she's a great gal. When Mando and her met in episode 1-4, Cara said that if she even tried to board a vessel registered with the New Republic, she'd be captured and be put in jail for life.
Other mistake: In the first episode of the first season, the Stormtroopers in Nevarro were wearing poorly maintained and rusty uniforms, implying they were a small detachment stranded away and cut off from any remnants of the Empire, in fact living in a clandestine condition. They also had to set up a small laboratory in the bunker where the doctor worked. Now turns out that a few minutes off the city, there's a full base the locals were aware of, with tons of equipment, that is where the stormtroopers from Season 1 finale came from, and that the research facility is there.
Other mistake: Cara Dune rams with the Marauder a trooper who was shooting at her through the open window. The speederbike explodes in a ball of flame, but despite the big open window that goes through the whole length of it, the flames do not affect the inside in the slightest. (00:25:50)
Other mistake: The imperial base (that has been there for a long time) has troops on speeder bikes ready to launch, but no proper way for them to get out of the base itself, so a couple of them die just because the jump is too steep and they can't avoid the rocks! Imagine building a garage ramp 40 feet in the air and not even clear the ground underneath from huge sharp rocks. How would they even go back up? There's no towing equipment in sight. (00:24:45)
Other mistake: Greef Karga mentions that the Mythrol was his accountant before running off, but when Mando captured him in the first episode, he had no idea who Mando was nor had ever seen his ship before.
Other mistake: Out of weaponry and with the enemy planes that got a hold of them, all hope is lost for the heroes, even if for some reason the fighters didn't stay behind them to aim but overpassed them. The first TIE fighter that is destroyed when they are saved is shot from the front, but Mando's ship arrives coming from behind them. (00:07:15)
Answer: In (non-canon) Legends, Thrawn was the central character of a trilogy of novels by Timothy Zahn. He was a Chiss officer in the Imperial Navy, who rose to the rank of grand admiral despite being non-human. Thrawn was brought into canon in the Star Wars Rebels series, where he commanded the Empire's Seventh Fleet and led the occupation of Lothal, which was opposed by the series' protagonists including Ahsoka Tano. In the final episode of Rebels, the Jedi and Rebel Ezra Bridger commands Purrgil space whales to drag Thrawn's Star Destroyer into hyperspace, jumping to an unknown location with himself and Thrawn on board. The final scene of the series shows Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren leaving Lothal to search for Bridger, and presumably Thrawn.
